Inkplate 10 with enclosure: compatible battery and charging method

TECHNICAL SUPPORT Inkplate

Customer:

I purchased an Inkplate 10 with enclosure but it came with no battery. Will a 3000mah 3.7V Li-ion battery fit? The product page mentions it needs to be charged with a special charger using CC/CV principle, but I can’t find the link. Does this mean I can’t use a regular USB-C charger?

Soldered Support:

That battery will fit and is exactly the model shipped with Inkplate 10 when ordered with a battery. It has the correct polarity and type, so you don’t need to do anything special besides plugging it in.

You can charge the battery by connecting Inkplate 10 to USB power while the battery is plugged in.
